Featured Help Identifying Empire Style Furniture Set

Hello All,

I have this 4 piece empire style furniture set that I am looking for more information on, but don't know where to start. The only fact that I know of right now is that it is empire style. However, I cannot find any true markings, numbers, or anything else that would help to identify the pieces. Any information is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Josh

 

Not Empire,more 1920s , Mass produced but still pretty.

 

Hi Josh and WELCOME to ANTIQUERS!!! Compliments to getting GREAT images up!!! I'm sure Johnny is right ON, but it's always nice to have several opinions!! Here's a tag to another one or two! @blooey, @Ghopper1924! Very pretty set in pristine condition!!

 

Hi Josh:

You've done a fine job with the photos, as Aquitaine mentioned. I regret taking away your one fact, but Johnny is right, these are not Empire. More like 1920s Neo-Art Deco bedroom furniture, with walnut and other stained hardwoods.

Unlike most manufactured goods, furniture did not usually have a tag or manufacturer's stamp until fairly recently, so in the absence of same you are unlikely to find out who made this set. However, that's not really important; this is a beautiful group in great condition, likely to last another hundred years with minimal care.

Although antique brown furniture is still in the cellar as far as value goes, you will not find a new set of furniture at 3 times the worth of this set that is even a fraction as nice. Since most of us need bedroom furniture as long as we have bedrooms, I'd recommend keeping these pieces.

 

Hi,
Always take out the drawers to look on the back of the drawer. I found printed info the the date of when my piece was made, When it was stained and refinished and the date it left the factory.
